DentalEZ Group, a supplier of innovative products and services for dental health professionals worldwide, recently sponsored the American Dental Hygienists' Association's (ADHA) Community Service Day.
The Community Service Day was held June 13 in conjunction with the ADHA's 89th Annual Session in Phoenix.
DentalEZ provided 12 Identafi oral cancer screening devices to ADHA hygienists who volunteered their time during the Community Service Day to perform oral cancer screenings to residents of the South Mountain Senior Center, a local organization located in Phoenix.
All attendees of ADHA 2012 were invited to participate in the 2012 Community Service Day Project. Approximately 50 hygienists signed up to volunteer for the event, and about 60 residents of the senior center were in attendance. Volunteers provided oral cancer screenings, oral health exams, toothbrush prophylaxis, fluoride varnish, and oral health education for the senior citizens.
